I discovered that Feng Office (formerly OpenGoo) has a "community edition":</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;"><br></div><div>http://sourceforge.net/projects/opengoo/files/</div><div><br></div><div>So far it seems like it is going to do exactly what we need it to do. it has very flexible and extensible reporting capabilities. Perhaps the biggest seller for us so far is the template. This allows you to create an automatic set of common tasks and milestones for new projects. </div><div><br></div><div>I have also found that it seems very easy to customize. For example, my manager prefers the term "Initiatives" over "Projects" or "Workspaces". This was very easy to change.</div><div><br></div><div>In summary, if you are looking for something aimed at development that includes bug tracking and issue resolution, you should probably look elsewhere, so Redmine. However, if you're not necessarily looking for something that is primarily focused on development, then you should really take a look at Feng.</div><div><br></div><div>Hope this helps!</div><div><br></div><div><JC><br><br><hr id="zwchr" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;"><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none;"><b>From: </b>"JonathanCalloway" <jonathancalloway@gmail.com><br><b>To: </b>"Chattanooga Unix Gnu Android Linux Users Group" <chugalug@chugalug.org><br><b>Sent: </b>Wednesday, March 6, 2013 3:07:57 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [Chugalug] Open Source Project Management<br><br><style>p { margin: 0; }</style><div style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000"><font size="3">Nick,</font><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;"><br></div><div><font size="3">I started a thread on this about 2 months ago or so, so I can't want to see what some of the other responses will be.
